#abaisabuse
Top Voted Definition for #abaisabuse
ABA is an acronym for Applied Behavioural Analysis. The #ABAIsAbuse hashtag speaks primarily of the use of ABA on autistic children. The abuses involved may be extreme, e.g. electric shocks and other aversives (punishments), or less obvious to outsiders, e.g. withholding treats for children who fail to act in non-autistic ways. ABA is widely recognised as abusive in 'treating' homosexuality.
